Daniels had showed a unique skill set though to go along with a decent senior season. His final year at LSU he just put it all together. I don’t really see a QB like him in this draft other than Sanders.

The knock on Penix was always his age and injuries, his numbers were always good. Even at Indiana. He was over drafted though.

McCarthy I don’t really have a feel on. I’d have liked to seen him in an offense that challenged the QB more. He can make the throws but Harbaugh made the offense simple for him.

Okay, so do Cam Ward.

I have not been looking at the college QBs much and I am not a good evaluator of QB talent historically--but I know that Ewers kept Arch Manning on the pine in Texas, which tells me that he won a competitive battle against a player who I am sure was/is a fan favorite.   To me, that means he is mentally tough.  Texas won too.  So I am interested in seeing what he can do.  Sure he has limitations, but so did Brees, Delhomme, etc.  Winning is a mindset, and I am interested in looking into him more if Bryce struggles.

I always like watching the college QBs. It’s such a complicated position to analyze.

That’s yards per attempt not air yardage. Yards per attempt includes YAC, air yardage doesn’t. Beck’s air yardage per attempt was 8.0 yards per attempt which was below the national average.

8 was below the national average? That’s crazy. Regardless he is doing what is asked in this UGA offense. He has the arm to throw it deep when needed.

Really don’t like this upcoming draft for QB’s, hopefully Bryce works out.

A couple G5’s to watch are Joey Aguilar from App State and Kaidon Salter from Liberty. Wish both transferred so it would be easier to evaluate them.

Best case scenario Bryce improves we somehow draft Travis Hunter as another weapon for him on offense.

I don't know if these are two of the absolute best defenses in the country or two of the absolute worst offenses. I'm leaning toward a little bit of both. I don't think these offenses are very good.

I think both these teams have some of the best defensive fronts in college football…..and therefore neither can run and when they can’t run they can’t do much.   It’s basically a replay of the last UGA/Clem matchup where UGA’s offense did nothing.  

but that’s not going to apply the rest of the season.  Both these teams will win that run matchup against most of their opponents

Burrow broke records in college. He had a legit arm downfield.

Burrow was like a 3rd-5th round pick before his 5th year. They aren’t going to have Beck throw bombs against Clemson’s defense unless they need him to, especially this early in the season.

Slightly below, average was 8.8.

Nix was all the way down at 7.0 which was a knock on him.

People like Beck because he was top 5 in off-target rate and first in average time to throw.

You are correct that he’s just doing what he’s asked but I really prefer a QB that can stretch the field which is why I liked Stroud and while I really like Jayden Daniels.

Joe Burrow didn't break anything before his redshirt senior year, in fact he produced a lot less at the same point Beck is now, We are half way through game 1, I can't honestly say I watched much of either of those QBs much in college....

      Carolina Still Not Respected

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      There was no reason to believe in either Cam or Jake as a top tier elite QB before those seasons either. Cam was an "athletic" QB in most people's minds and his passing skills were open for debate. And there was a bit to that as he was still trying to get that massive power in his arm tamed to be able to put some touch on his passes. And then, he did it. Missiles became bombs, the firing lanes became points of finesse. Cam grew up and leveled up, while still retaining the ability and drive to truck people whenever he wanted. And Jake... no one freaking believed in Jake except Jake himself. He got, and let's be honest with this, one chance in a losing game to make something out of his career. And he rose to the occasion like some kind of mythical hero and continued to do so for the season. He became a true leader for the team, and his gunslinger capabilities rehabbed Moose's career and created Smitty as a force in the league. Smitty went from a barker to a biter. But no one believed in Jake going in. And they trashed him on his way out. Now Bryce... who knows? I've seen some improvement. Maybe he finds his footing. His teammates seem to love and respect him and that means a lot. The game should be moving at his speed now. He has weapons available to him and maybe a defense that doesn't just roll over by the third quarter. And his coach seems to be moving this team in the right direction. Could he do it? It's up to him, if he can find the magic like Jake and Cam did. But don't doubt this, magic is really, really hard to find.
